Takes a fresh look at the military engagements of the Irish Civil War and provides an insight into why old wounds are only just beginning to heal.
Peter Cottrell is currently a serving Army officer in the British Army. He has recently completed an MA thesis on the Royal Irish Constabulary and is hoping to read a PhD on policing during the Anglo-Irish War. He lives in Hampshire, UK.
"Without giving too much away, it is a book that the author, Peter Cottrell pens superbly. He is able to help weave through what seems like a tangled mess of people and events to provide as clear a history of the war as any I've ever read. Superbly illustrated with period photos as well as excellent maps, it is a book that I can highly recommend to all of those who show an interest in this particular conflict." --Scott Van Aken, modelingmadness.com (September 2008) "[A] sequel to The Anglo-Irish War ... an outstanding survey perfect for Irish history and military collections alike." --California Bookwatch (November 2008)
